Tracked down the last remaining new Kyosho Inferno GT2 VE 1/8 Corvette kit in the world! (discontinued) $77 in shipping later from the UK shes all mine! plan to race it in the GT8e class.







also tracked down the last NOS clear Kyosho C6R replacement body for it online. luckily in US



and picked up a clear Protoform C7R GT2 body to use for actual running/racing. (C6 bodies will most likely be shelf queens and sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars in 30 years )

I hit Erik up for a set of these.
A no brainer if you pay $30. 00 a pair for Traxxas big Bores . These are $37.00 a pair with your choice of springs, turned bodies, spring cups and in color.

^^Congrats on the new bike! Just got cleared from my ortho/physical terrorist to get back in the saddle this morning. I can't wait to get back out there.

Yeah, can't wait for the thaw here. Although, I may need to see a PT after this weekend. Went down pretty hard XC Skiing and stoved the shoulder up. It's a bit crunchy this morning.

I saw it on IG last night and wanted to text you, but I forgot. Congrats! Looks like an awesome chassis.

Can you still get parts?

As someone who's had one shoulder put back together, and just finished 8 weeks of PT for the other one, seriously, find a good orthopedist/orthopedic surgeon and get it looked at. They'll refer you to either PT, or other things (MRI, scope, etc) depending on what their initial tests show. Good luck with it man, and do EVERYTHING they tell you to do and nothing more and you'll back as close to 100% as you can.

Charger and Super Mario Bros.U Deluxe for the kids. Oh wait, I don't have kids. It's for the inner child in me that refuses to give up. Also some free aluminum parts from Losi to replace the ones that bent like tinfoil and an RC4WD clone transmission for my 1/6th Jeep Build.

gotten the "speed run" bug lately, odd cause ive never done that in RC. well other than a couple planes.

wasnt planning on picking one of these up for another 6 motnhs, but came across this one on ebay. had only 5 runs on it, and had the origonal box, manual etc. which is a must for me cause i keep all my RCs forever.

couldnt pass it up for half price.



plans are to build a 8S machine with 140mph as the goal.








while the larger size of the XO-1 is a hurt to its top speed capabilities, the real underbody aero really intrigues me. real functional race car shit. even a NACA duct. functioinal splitter and diffuser, and full underbody pan.

^^You're a wild man. I've seen the aftermath of what happens when those things crash, no thanks. It's the only land RC I would equate to roughly the same carnage as an aircraft crash. Get some video please!

No pics, but the most recent rc purchases have been to convert a stock 22sct 2.0 with sway bars and a gear diff to a mid motor race truck for mod 2wd short course indoor off-road racing on carpet

I need to stop buying shit on Ebay just because it's cheap.

Got this gem of an RC10T3 slider headed my way.
